Intro :           
 
 
S  teer your way past the ruins of the Altar and the Mall
Steer your w  ay through the fables of Creation and The Fall
Steer your w  ay past the Palaces that rise above the rot
 
 
Year by y  ear month by month day by d  ay    
Thought by t  hought    
 
 
S  teer your heart past the Truth that you believed in yesterday
Such as F  undamental Goodness and the Wisdom of the Way
Steer your h  eart precious heart past the women whom you bought
 
 
Year by y  ear month by month day by d  ay    
Thought by t  hought    
 
 
S  teer your way through the pain that is far more real than you
That's s  mashed the Cosmic Model that blinded every view
And p  lease don't make me go there though there be a God or not
 
 
Year by y  ear month by month day by d  ay    
Thought by t  hought    
 
 
They w  hisper still the injured stones
The blunted mountains w  eep
As he d  ied to make men holy
Let us die to make things c  heap
And s  ay the Mea Culpa which you probably forgot
 
 
Year by y  ear month by month day by d  ay    
Thought by t  hought    
 
 
S  teer your way O my heart though I have no right to ask
To the o  ne who was never never equal to the task
Who k  nows he's been convicted who knows he will be shot
 
 
Year by y  ear month by month day by d  ay    
Thought by t  hought    
 
 
They w  hisper still the injured stones
The blunted mountains w  eep
As he d  ied to make men holy
Let us die to make things c  heap
And s  ay your Mea Culpa which you gradually forgot
 
 
Year by y  ear month by month day by d  ay    
Thought by t  hought
